Tribal Subdivisions as of
Listed below are all of the tribal subdivisions in the U.S. Census Bureau records that have been submitted by your tribal government for
your reservation and/or off-reservation trust land. Tribal subdivisions are units of self-government or administration within reservation and/or
trust land boundaries that serve social, economic, cultural, or legal purposes and may be designated as districts, communities, chapters,
precincts, etc.
If your tribal government previously submitted tribal subdivisions to the U.S. Census Bureau, please review the list of tribal subdivisions
below and make any necessary changes to the name, type, status or date. Active, legal subdivisions are defined as having a functioning
government with elected officials that provides services within the subdivision. Inactive subdivisions have no functioning government or
elected officials and receive services solely from the tribe. Tribal government resolutions or ordinances must accompany any changes as
supporting documentation. If you would like to delineate a tribal subdivision for the first time, please refer to the Paper BAS How to Guide
for instructions.
To report additions, deletions, modifications and/or boundary changes to existing tribal subdivisions, please update both the list below and
the enclosed map(s). You may make changes to the maps with the BLUE and RED pencils that are provided. Please refer to your Paper
BAS How to Guide for more information.
